Now, I have no idea if this little tribute to Kurtzman is new to this volume, and/or if it’s something that everyone knows about and I, Captain Obvious, am pointing out (which I have a history of doing), but I’m putting it out there anyway. So there. Plus, I Googled it and didn’t see anything about it. Well, sorta Googled it. Skimmed a couple of pages of results, anyway.

In conclusion: Smurfs – I have, won’t you?

Speaking of the Googling, in regards to the title of a post of mine from a couple of days ago…I appear to be the #2 Google result for Teaser and the Blacksmith (if the search terms are enclosed in quotes, that is).

And folks thought I’d never amount to anything.

Interesting that you pointed out the similarity in the two fonts. I was paying too much attention to the font that was MISSING. There was a curious absence of noise in the second book The Magic Flute where Oily knocked on Peewit’s door, and all we saw were lines, and no “Nok, Nok”s.

I’ll probably do a post about them once my sister returns them, and I can find the French originals for comparision.
